Color Theory Tutorial

Create a Director application that teaches basic color theory to science majors at a liberal Arts college. You can assume that your audience did not have any color theory and would like to know at least the basics terminology, such as

  • color wheel, primary, secondary, tertiary colors
  • analogic, contrasting, soft-contrasting and discordant colors

Do not create a powerpoint-style slide show. Using the frame navigational techcnique create a "scene" where a viewer can find explanation to the terms above with a click. You can use your own definitions or the definitions found in one of the websites we have used in class, but in either case give credit to the souce.Extra credit: For each of the definitions, provide a sample (from a painting, website, CD-ROM, etc) that demonstrates the definition.

When done, name your file color_theory.dir, and publish it. Augment the .html file so that it describes how you did it and how you applied the design principles. Put these three files inside a directory called hw5.
